102268245 rows smells a lot like 4GB. However, I can find nothing in the online documentation that says there is a hard 4GB limit.

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/server-system-variables.html#sysvar_max_heap_table_size
implies that there is a 4GB limit for a 32-bit build, but not for 64-bit. You do have a 32-bit version?
SHOW VARIABLES LIKE 'version%';
version_compile_machine = x86 would mean 32-bit.

This may be relevant:

(There are a lot of other bugs on this topic, some going back 8 years.)
Perhaps more telling...
http://lists.askmonty.org/pipermail/commits/2012-April/003198.html -- So it may be fixed in MariaDB? Give can't tell what version of MariaDB might have that fix. This says it has been "pushed":
https://bugs.launchpad.net/maria/+bug/794680
I would try the latest MariaDB 5.5.
